Updated Dates

I'm catching up with news, and it looks like the U.S. tour is filling out-- nicely for us on the coasts, but maybe not so nicely for those of you in the interior states:

Squeeze U.S. dates:

July 31 - Cape Code Melody Tent - Hyannis, MA
August 1 - Bank of America Pavilion - Boston, MA
August 3 - Beacon Theatre / New York, NY
August 4 - Borgata Music Box / Atlantic City, NJ
August 6 - Starlight Ballroom - Sayreville, NJ
August 7 - North Fork Theatre at Westbury - Westbury, NY
August 8 - Pier Six Concert Pavilion - Baltimore, MD
August 9 - Wolf Trap Filene Center - Vienna, VA
August 11 - Concerts in the Park - Alpine, CA
August 12 - The Grove of Anaheim - Anaheim, CA
August 13 - Greek Theatre - Los Angeles, CA
August 14 - The Mountain Winery - Saratoga, CA

Wow. Looks like I got tickets for the last show, and at a winery to boot. That ought to be fun. I wonder if this gives Glenn any time to train to tackle Mt. Everest by October (or at least the trail leading up to base camp?).

The press release goes on to say that 1) Essential Squeeze is due out only in the UK at the moment, and 2) that The Arctic Monkeys, Razorlight (who?), and Lily Allen all cite Squeeze as influences. Has the Squeeze Reader ever mentioned the rest of the band? For the record: John Bentley on bass, Stephen 'Lord' Large on keyboards and Simon Hanson on drums.
